Last season, Bridgerton was all about Daphne Bridgerton finding love. On March 25th, it is all about her brother, Lord Anthony Bridgerton, doing the same. Will he find love just like his sister? It looks like from the trailer that he finds it and then some on the Netflix RomDran.
Or, as Netflix puts it, the second season of Bridgerton follows Lord Anthony Bridgerton (Jonathan Bailey), the eldest Bridgerton sibling and Viscount, as he sets out to find a suitable wife. Driven by his duty to uphold the family name, Anthony’s search for a debutante who meets his impossible standards seems ill-fated until Kate (Simone Ashley) and her younger sister Edwina (Charithra Chandran) Sharma arrive from India. When Anthony begins to court Edwina, Kate discovers the true nature of his intentions — a true love match is not high on his priority list — and decides to do everything in her power to stop the union. But in doing so, Kate and Anthony’s verbal sparring matches only bring them closer together, complicating matters on both sides. Across Grosvenor Square, the Featheringtons must welcome the newest heir to their estate while Penelope (Nicola Coughlan) continues to navigate the ton whilst keeping her deepest secret from the people closest to her.
ABC announced today that Station 19 will be back for a 6th season in the Fall. The news is not a surprise because it does better than Grey’s Anatomy in the overnights, the show it spun off of.
“The riveting storytelling and passionate fan base that Station 19 continues to cultivate is a testament to the unrelenting dedication of Krista Vernoff and the incredibly talented cast and crew,” stated Craig Erwich, president, Hulu Originals and ABC Entertainment. “Coupled with yesterday’s renewal of Grey’s Anatomy, the return of Station 19 ensures more crossover opportunities and a thrilling night of appointment television.”
I was hoping that since Station 19 is doing so well on its own, that we would be done with the crossover episodes. But I guess not. I guess I will have to fast forward through Grey’s to find the five minutes that actually make it a crossover. Yeah, I said it. They are not really crossovers.
Remember a few weeks ago when Ellen Pompeo was like, I don’t know how Grey’s Anatomy can go on, and she wants it to end. Well, guess what? She lied.
How do I know? Because ABC announced today that she signed on to do another season of Grey’s. That means the longest-running medical drama will be back on the schedule in the Fall for a 19th season.
It is not shocking. Even though it has taken a hit in viewership, it still does well for ABC and globally. And for some reason, people still like it.
Will next year be the show’s last one? We don’t know but be prepared for Pompeo to tell us she wants it to be.
Netflix gave fans of Bridgerton the gift they have been waiting for. They announced that Season 2 is going to debut three months from today. So mark your calendars because you don’t want to miss what happens next when the erotic period drama returns on March 25th!
Ellen Pompeo was a no-name before Grey’s Anatomy, and now she thinks she knows it all about making the same TV show for 18 years. That is why she believes it is time for the show that made her a household name to end.
“I feel like I’m the super naive one who keeps saying, ‘But what’s the story going to be, what story are we going to tell?'” she told Insider. “And everyone’s like, ‘Who cares, Ellen? It makes a gazillion dollars.'”
I say kill her off and let the medical soap live on without her whiny character. Maybe then the creativity will return to the producers. Possibly she could be the source of what has been hampering the show.
But then again, Station 19 has been beating the show it spun off of this season in the ratings, so maybe Pompeo is onto something.
Plus, when the show ends, so will her career. So I think we are going to learn a lot about her behind-the-scenes antics when she is finally gone from the series. And it is not going to be pretty. But I could be wrong.
So do you think ABC should pull the plug on the program or the actress?
